He was shrewd at getting her heart melted As they dialogued at one coffee-corner in the dark Adelé wasn't in the mood to fall for the grind of his pestle She had stayed at one side in the heart of a mortal Just to get warmth from the talented hole created therein Until Àyìnlá came to touch the soft part of her yam And her obsequious part picked to kowtow to his claro call Àyìnlá has been on his knees, pleading for the reverse of her admittance Adedokun Seyi, nick named ‘Godsent’ was born and raised in Oyo state.
